yes, i understand i said i would NEVER touch this project again Tell Me

but there are lots of people going around hacking nicknames which is one of the bugs RPB protects against Smile

so i opened up RPB, and disabled all the unfinished sections + deleted some options, etc

this fixes the nickname takeovers NOTHING ELSE

you need NightRegulator v0.0.5 or above to run this

Every time I try and run it, it tells me to run Config.exe, but after I configure it, It just deletes my settings and it just keeps telling me to run config when I try and open the program.

Obviously we'd need someone to try and make the same thing for Brenbot Wink

They can still get your IP through other meathods?

Otherwise, This makes it so people can't get your IP and knock your connection offline?

RenegadeIP was originally designed to block a direct connection to a server but i never really got around to finishing it, lol

i am accually considering restarting this project up because its pretty close to being complete and could be finished in a few days if i worked hard

basically in this build i have disabled all the unfinished bits on the config screen

what this fixes is the bug where you can join the game on somebody elses nick when they are in the server and then the other person loses connection to the serv + gets kicked out aka nickname takeover bug

So basically what scripts 2.1 fixes? Or am I wrong?

This is fixed in Scripts 2.3

When people ask me "Plz" just because it's shorter than "Please" I feel perfectly justified to answer "No" because it's shorter then "Yes"

yeah, the scripts fix is better, than running RPB

but it seems to not work for some people? something to do with the latest scripts conflicting with bandtest.dll or the fix not working or something? lol

but anyway, RPB is for the people who cannot get the scripts fix to work

so, Technically speaking, someone could join a server under any nickname they want, even a moderators of the server and get their moderation satus? (If the nickname wasn't protected via irc.)
